Look at this studio filled with glamorous prizes! Fabulous merchandise including:
A black llama mink coat
A $16,000 jeweled pin
A Chrysler Conquest TSI
Over $123,000 just waiting to be won on...
Wheel of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Brenda Alexander: Homemaker and mother of two, from Stone Mountain, GA
David Simpson: Acting teacher and directed a few plays, from Philadelphia, PA
Cary Kisner: Student at American University studying international affairs, from Martinsburg, WV
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. Try not to hit Bankrupt, or you will lose all your cash, but once you buy a prize, it's yours to keep. Now for Round 1:
Brenda solves I CAN'T HEAR MYSELF THINK.
We think we've got a good prize for the Wheel! It's a trip to Nashville and 6-night stay at Opryland Hotel, Grand Ole Opry, plus General Jackson showboat dinner and show excursion (labeled TRIP) worth $2,247.
Cary solves JFK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.
We hear you, and we've got some plans for Big Money with a $5,000 space on the wheel!
DING DING! DING DING!
Just like that, Pat must give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $1,500 a piece.
Cary: H ($3,000)
